Reading scales worksheet with fruits and vegetables on balance scales, measuring weight in grams.

Let's solve this step-by-step by reading the weight on each scale in grams. Each scale is a circular dial marked from 0 to 900 grams in increments of 100, with smaller marks between (each representing 20 grams).

We will go through each scale one by one and determine the weight based on where the needle points.

Row 1:

1. Banana
- Needle is pointing at 140 grams (between 100 and 200; closer to 140).
→ 140 g

2. Orange
- Needle is pointing just past 100, around 160 grams.
→ 160 g

3. Strawberries
- Needle is pointing at 500 grams.
→ 500 g

Row 2:

4. Three green apples
- Needle is pointing at 300 grams.
→ 300 g

5. Grapes
- Needle is pointing at 480 grams (just before 500, about 2 small marks below).
→ 480 g

6. Two red peppers
- Needle is pointing at 340 grams (between 300 and 400, slightly past 300).
→ 340 g

Row 3:

7. Pineapple
- Needle is pointing at 800 grams.
→ 800 g

8. Carrots
- Needle is pointing at 400 grams.
→ 400 g

9. Cauliflower
- Needle is pointing at 700 grams.
→ 700 g

| Banana | 140 g |
| Orange | 160 g |
| Strawberries | 500 g |
| Apples | 300 g |
| Grapes | 480 g |
| Peppers | 340 g |
| Pineapple | 800 g |
| Carrots | 400 g |
| Cauliflower | 700 g |

📝 Explanation:

- Each scale has markings every 100 grams (0, 100, 200, ..., 900).
- Between each 100-gram mark, there are 5 smaller marks, so each small mark = 20 grams.
- We estimate the position of the needle relative to these marks to get the exact weight.

For example:
- If the needle is at the second small mark after 100, that’s 100 + (2 × 20) = 140 g.
- If it's halfway between 400 and 500, it would be 450 g, but here we see it’s at 480 g — two marks before 500.

All values have been read carefully using this method.
